Package: mutt
Version: 1.5.6-20040803+1
Severity: normal

I configured mutt to read .signature-file, but accidentally deleted that
file. When I replied to a mail, mutt didn't start an editor and also
didn't respond to any keys. If there is no .signature, mutt should print
out an error mesage or silently ignore it.

I just verified that this is what it does on my system.
What did you broke?

I really can't reproduce this, either with $signature being left to
its default value, being set to a non-existing file or being set to a
non-existing program (| appended).

in all cases mutt just quietly starts the editor without a signature
appended. you can check it works as I say doing this:

$ echo 'set signature=/does-not-exist' >/tmp/muttrc
$ mutt -nF /tmp/muttrc

and sending then a mail. the editor will open with an empty body. if
you can reproduce by means of some other settings, please explain.

thanks,
